Residents between 240 and 380 Brush Road cannot currently access their properties. Residents leaving this designated area may not be allowed back until the clean-up is complete. All other residents within the area may access their properties in consultation with Fire & Rescue NSW and Council staff.

No general traffic will be permitted into the area. People who are at home are advised to remain indoors.

Fire & Rescue NSW has completed a door knock of the affected area.

The exact quantity is unknown at this stage but approximately 20 packages of material (0.5m x 0.5m) have been discovered. Some of the wrapped packages have broken open on impact.

Preliminary investigations are underway. Council is unsure at this stage how long clean-up will take and when the road will re-open. Further updates will be provided throughout the day.
